Chapter 289: Heaven in Hand
Chapter 289: Heaven in Hand
Feeling the sword light on his forehead that made him instinctively warn him, Jian San was silent for a long time before speaking, his voice full of difficulty and unwillingness:
"What kind of sword move is this?"
"Zhu Xian." Ya Xiu put away his sword and said, "Of course, you can also call it Zhu Shen, there is no big difference anyway."
"Slay the Immortals, Slay the Gods?" Jian San pondered over the two words and suddenly smiled. "Are you sure?"
"100 percent." Ash said casually, but confidently.
Others might accuse him of being arrogant, but Jian San, who was defeated in less than half an hour, had no right to say so.
"Then take it, but remember to ask an old man like me to take a look at it when the time comes." Jian San said, and patted Yaxiu on the body.
In an instant, Ash's share of the "sword" began to surge to fifty-one percent.
However, Jian San's aura became a little erratic, as if his spine had been removed.
He is a person who can take on responsibilities and let go of things.
Yaxiu couldn't help but look at Jiansan in surprise. He thought Jiansan would cheat or not give it all, but he didn't expect him to be so straightforward.
Although he thought so in his mind, Ash didn't say it out loud, otherwise it would seem like he was a mean person.
"I will." Ash nodded slightly.
Landing on the hill again, Ash bowed and said goodbye: "Goodbye, Brother."
Jian San waved his hand listlessly without saying anything.
Being defeated by his junior fellow apprentice who was hundreds of years younger than him, and by an absolute advantage, he felt that he needed to take a few years to recover.
Yaxiu turned and left, and Zhongming appeared beside him without knowing when: "What was the name of that move you just used?"
She saw it clearly just now, watching Ash force Jian San to admit defeat with his crushing attitude.
"Zhu Xian." Yaxiu said.
"Can you teach me?" Chongming did not hide her desire for that move. She was also a pure warrior, so she was naturally excited to see such a powerful move.
Ash paused, looked Chongming up and down, then grinned, "I won't teach you, I'll just pass it on to future generations!"
"What a pedantic remark." Chongming snorted coldly.
"Hahaha!" Ash laughed.
Of course he taught him later. Without the [Four Intentions of All Heaven], the Zhu Xian Sword Formation was just a powerful formation. Although it was strong, it was not yet to the extent of defying the heavens.
As for the fact that Professor Cheng Zhongming called him "dad", it is completely false. Well, it is completely false.
In the most central secret room of the Sun Palace, Ash continued to retreat. The "sword" had taken the dominant position, and now it was the "sky"'s turn.
As the divinity points decreased, Ash felt as if he had an additional vision. That vision was extremely high and far, allowing Ash to see the entire world at a glance.
In that vision, he saw the joys and sorrows of all living beings, the cycle of life and death, and the passage of time.
At a certain moment, Ash's vision returned to darkness again.
He slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of vicissitudes appeared in his molten gold eyes, but that trace of vicissitudes was wiped out in an instant.
"I didn't expect it to be so much harder to comprehend than the sword."
Ash felt that he had only made a slight progress of 7 or 8 thousandths of a day, which was several times slower than the time it took to comprehend the sword.
Ash sensed the time again and ten days had passed.
"There's still enough time."
Ash closed his eyes, his divinity points dropped again, he had to hurry up and comprehend it.
While Yaxiu was in seclusion, the Yinglong Army also started a new round of expansion.
The remaining 18 states of Chico were being annexed at a rate of one state per month. This brought a great sense of threat to the various imperial forces nearby. This land was already crowded enough, and they didn't want another one to grab their food.
But since the news came from the Chonglong Empire that Yaxiu was revealed to be the ruler of the Yinglong Army, those empires have become cautious.
Not to mention Ash's unknown strength, the fact that he once showed a close relationship with Chongming was enough to make all the demigods feel uneasy.
No one knows whether Chongming will take action, and even if the demigods of these weak empires are tied together, they probably won't be her match.
Therefore, those empires are temporarily dormant. After all, the Yinglong Army has not really harmed their interests.
Moreover, the first bird to take action is already prepared, and they have to see the situation first before taking action.
If we were to say who is most anxious about the expansion of the Yinglong Army, it would undoubtedly be the French Empire. They know very well that the top leaders of the Yinglong Army are descendants of the Chico royal family.
And they still occupy the territory of their ancestors. From this point of view, the two sides are bound to fight.
The most anxious among them are the beneficiaries of Duke Clarkson's death, because if the two sides really go to war, they will be the first to suffer.
In order to suppress the expansion of the Yinglong Army, they began to provide a large amount of supplies and manpower to the remaining Eighteen States of Chiko, hoping to delay or even attack the Yinglong Army.
Unfortunately, the Yinglong Army, Yinglong Guards and Ascendants are all like bugs under Yaxiu's investment.
We will win every battle and take every city we attack. The golden tide will surge past and there will be no enemy that can match us.
The Yinglong Army annexed the Eighteen States of Chiko step by step in such a domineering and steady manner.
After annexing the Eighteen Kingdoms, the Yinglong Army did not expand again. It was as if it had eaten its fill and began to digest what it had not had time to digest before.
January 1243, of the Iron Calendar.
Ash slowly opened his eyes in the secret room.
[Divinity Points: 21]
After nearly two years and consuming almost all of his savings, Ash finally completed his control over the "sky" and his share reached 51%.
He took a long breath, and the magic element in the earth veins beneath him rushed towards him like a torrent, and in an instant it was transformed into the energy he needed to fill the gap in his body.
Gaining share is also a kind of practice for demigods.
And after using up all his accumulation in one breath, Ash naturally reached a peak that others might not reach in a thousand years.
Only after realizing that further absorption would cause irreparable damage to the major fulcrum of the earth vein did Ash stop absorbing.
"Under the true gods, there should be no one stronger than me."
Ash shook his hand. It seemed like nothing unusual happened, but the terrifying power contained in it was enough to crush any matter into the smallest particles.
'The battle for the throne is coming soon.'
Yaxiu thought to himself that after he took control of the "sky", he had already sensed what was brewing in the deepest part of the world, and could estimate when it would be born.
'About a year from now.'
Ash estimated that although he still had seven years and eight months to sense, he could sense that the last two of his dragon servants were about to enter the gem species, as were Rookie and Dart.
After all, they were the magical pets that followed him in the past, so it was natural to give them the opportunity to enter the gem species.
One gem type can reduce the time by about half a year, and then there are Nas, Maria and other demigods who are about to be promoted, as well as other unpredictable gem types and new demigods.
One year is a conservative estimate, and if it is someone's deliberate push, Ash thinks it wouldn't be surprising to start now.
Ash looked up at the sky and squinted slightly.
